Congrats on your healthy bowel movements. I am not sure what the acronym ISP means in relation to a fibrous diet, but it is probably best left as a mystery.   :ninja:

Thank you! I'm very proud of it, I named it 'Conan', for it left a wake of blood and tears...

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Today I got eliminated in our blood Bowl league. Mostly because I am a good sport, and when the other team was down I didn't spend the rest of the game fouling to kill even more players. We played overtime and ended that with a score of 6 - 6. Penalties (a d6 roll since there had to be a winner) the other team won :p

My team walked off the pitch, the opponents had to be carried off. If that's victory... ;)

 

Yesterday though it was snowing.

Now I am trying to upload gifs of the snowfall.

Using you lot as test subjects :)

Athens. It was snowing last night (it doesn't normally snow in the city) so I did a midnight stroll up the hill to the acropolis. Figured it was a great opportunity to get some images few people would have.

Yeah, I don't really know how to use a camera properly, so I was switching between my canon and my phone for different results. Would have been neat to know how to do "good" photos. But since nobody with a proper camera seemed to be around, my friends had to do with my crummy shots. Dunno if this link will work for the actual photos (if anyone is interested) https://www.facebook.com/tsiakalos/posts/10155056686374236?pnref=story

Was called by my mother as she was collapsing last night at 2am. Had to run two miles down to her place, expecting the worst, but thankfully it was a blood pressure drop due to something she ate, little more than that. Was a scary situation however.

I'm glad that your mother is fine but I have to ask: why did you run 2 miles?

 

Don't you have a car or at least a bike?

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

Don't, unfortunately. I ought to get a bike, though, for certain.

Can't have better motivation than to be prepared for when **** like this happen.

all those years o' fantasy movies and novels has ruined us.  we look at the scenes o' snow at the acropolis and it feels incomplete.  am waiting for the swarm o' winged demons, and perhaps an angry greek god to emerge all backlit and spookified. 

 

HA! Good Fun!

If you haven't already named one of the penguins Tux then you should probably name one of them Tux.

I have a Tux. University bookstore had one, grabbed it for $10 or so. Even has a badge!
